That gaze seemed to have never appeared before. Zhang Lie looked around, trying to find the owner of that gaze.
The look came from the disciples of Beichen Peak. Beichen Peak only had a total of twenty disciples participating in the assessment of core disciples.
Logically speaking, if he had met him once, he could easily find this person among the twenty people with his memory.
But the situation at this moment was extremely strange. He counted them one by one among the twenty people, but he could not find the Beichen Peak disciple who was only a low-grade great martial artist.
Could it be that I was really hallucinating? I couldn’t find it for a long time. Zhang Lie couldn’t help but doubt that he had come by himself, and he felt briefly uneasy.
"Junior brother Zhang, are you okay?" A senior brother from Tianyue Peak saw that Zhang Lie was distracted and asked kindly: "In the current war, don't mess up your position."
Zhang Lie came back to his senses and thought to himself that he really cared too much. No matter what his eyes were, when the time came to meet him, I would just keep an eye out.
"Thank you, senior brother. By the way, senior brother Wu Bing, you have participated in the assessment of core disciples. Can you tell me how the assessment will be conducted later." Zhang Lie thanked him and changed the topic.
Although Zhang Lie is an inner disciple who has just joined Tianyue Peak, his talent and strength cannot be underestimated, and his future prospects are certainly limitless.
Wu Bing interjected with him, originally wanting to make friends, and when he saw him asking questions, he immediately told what he knew.
"The assessment for core disciples is divided into basic level and final arena battle. The basic level is different every year, so I don't know what will be tested in the basic level later."
"The battle in the arena that follows does not change every year. The warriors who have passed the basic level fight against each other, leaving only the top fifty inner disciples. It is said that the top ten disciples will be rewarded by the sect."
"There is still one battle at the end, which is among the fifty lowest ranked core players in the past. Each of them has to choose one person to fight against. If they lose, they will lose their status as core disciples."
Zhang Lie nodded and said, "I see. I don't know what the basic test will be this year."
I don’t know why, but the examiner sent by the main hall on the spacious school grounds has not come down yet. A group of people have been standing in the scorching sun for a long time, and they are gradually becoming impatient.
"What's going on? I haven't started yet. The sun is making me dizzy!"
"Haha, I'm fine. The longer I practice the fire-attribute skills in the sun, it's just boring to wait. Who knows what's going on?"
"We're not all here yet. If we're not here, the examiner won't come."
"Who's so showy? He's so showy that he wants so many of us to wait for him."
"It seems that the people from Qingyun Peak haven't come yet. I heard that Qingyun Peak recently accepted a very powerful inner disciple, who defeated Kuaishou Lin Feng with one move."
"Really or not, Lin Feng's strength ranks among the top ten among all core disciples."
A group of people were talking when a black spot appeared on the eastern horizon. The black spot slowly expanded. After everyone saw it clearly, they found that it was a huge blue bird.
The Bluebird piloted by Liu Suifeng was very poor, and Xiao Chen was completely unprepared. After flying in the sky for a long time, he realized that Ya was flying in the wrong direction.
Liu Suifeng looked at the school ground on the ground, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said with a smile: "Brother Ye, you are right this time. Just look at the expressions of the people on the ground looking at us, how excited they are."
Under the sweep of Ye Chen's spiritual consciousness, he immediately heard clearly what the group of people on the ground said, and said speechlessly: "I was very excited, but I was just very excited by scolding."
call out!
The blue bird flapped its wings and slowly landed on the ground of the school ground. Xiao Chen and Liu Suifeng immediately jumped down from it. Both of them were thick-skinned and ignored the looks from everyone in the field.
Bang bang bang!
Not long after Xiao Chen and Liu Suifeng landed, three gray-robed old men jumped down from a high platform in the distance. They cut three air waves in the air and slid steadily for a few hundred meters. He landed firmly on the ground.
A middle-aged man with a Chinese character came out among the three. With the cultivation level of a peak martial arts master, the aura on his body was strong, and his eyes were introverted. He glanced at the crowd present, and everyone felt a slight pressure.
"I am your examiner. Like previous years, this year's assessment is still divided into the basic level at the front and the ring battle at the back." The middle-aged man with a Chinese character said in a deep voice, and his voice was so loud that everyone in the venue could hear it clearly. Chu.
when! Dang!
The examiner waved his hand, and the two people next to him released black rocks as tall as one person from the space rings in their hands. Soon a stone forest appeared in the field. There were no lines on the surface of the rocks, exuding a calm and atmospheric atmosphere.
"The first level is to test your strength. You need to use a knife to break open a rock here. Remember, you only have one chance. Failure means elimination." The examiner said to everyone with an expressionless face.
Then the two deputy examiners next to them began to issue numbers to other people, and they lined up for the assessment in the order of the numbers.
Xiao Chen took his number and looked at it. No. 240 was a relatively low number. There were only about 300 people in the entire school who came to take the assessment.
After the call was given, Tianyue Feng, the top ranked man, slowly walked into the stone forest and looked at the black rock as high as a person without paying too much attention.
After the great martial artist condenses the sword light, he can strike with all his strength to break the mountain rocks into countless stone chips. This is without the use of martial arts. If the martial arts is used, the power will be even greater.
The long sword was unsheathed, and dots of red light gathered on the blade. This person practiced fire-attribute skills. Fire-attribute skills are generally known for their rapid power, so there should be no problem.
"Break it open for me!"
This disciple of Tianyue Peak shouted loudly and jumped into the air. The sword light fell from the sky, showing great momentum. However, the light of the sword struck the black rock and made a clanging sound. The rock did not even open a crack. .
"How could this happen?" The sword light dispersed, and the man looked at the black rock without any traces, his eyes filled with confusion.
The examiner struck out with a palm in the air, and the rock as hard as iron shattered into countless fragments. He said calmly: "No. 1 is unqualified, stand down!"
"No, I can't quit. I'm nineteen years old this year. If I fail, I will never have a chance. Give me another chance. I didn't use martial arts. I can definitely do it if I use martial arts." The man looked anxious. He pleaded to the examiner.
The examiner waved his hand, and waves of air rolled in. The person was immediately thrown into the air by a huge force and landed hard outside the school grounds. "I made it very clear that everyone only has one chance. I don't want to repeat it again and tell everyone else."
Whoops!
On the high platform of the school ground, a black dart was suddenly shot. The examiner gently clamped the dart, took off the note on the dart, and said after a moment: "The regulations I just got, no martial arts are allowed in this first level of assessment. , if used, it will be considered a violation and will also be disqualified.”
As soon as the news came out, there was an explosion on the school grounds. Everyone present already knew that this black rock was not an ordinary stone, it was very extraordinary, and it was several times harder than ordinary rocks.
I already had some drumming in my heart, but now that I heard that I was not allowed to use martial arts, I felt incredible. Not only these inner disciples found it incredible, but the expressions on the faces of the two deputy examiners next to the chief examiner also showed shock.
They knew the origin of the black rock. Even if the two of them wanted to split it in half, they would have to use a quarter of their strength.
The examiner had a dark face and said in a deep voice: "Quiet, continue the assessment. If the noise continues, I will use my own method to make it quiet."
Although some people were still dissatisfied, under the majesty of the examiner, no one dared to refute. Examiner No. 2 walked out with a solemn expression.
This man was smarter. After walking around the black rock, he asked the examiner: "Can you touch this rock?"
The examiner nodded and said: "Yes, but you cannot use your vitality to cheat, and the time should not be too long."
This person quickly walked over the surface of the rock, showing extreme caution. After a moment, he retracted his hand and slowly pulled out the long knife.
clang!
Without much hesitation, he gathered energy decisively and took action in one go. Without any hesitation, the blade broke through the top of the rock with a swipe, and kept slashing downwards.
A look of joy appeared on his face, and he couldn't help but increase the strength in his hands. Crack, the knife got stuck when it was still a quarter of the distance to the bottom of the rock.
No matter how hard the person tried, the blade could neither fall forward nor be pulled out. It was completely stuck.
boom!
The examiner waved his palm again, and the force of the palm flying from the air sent a sonic explosion in the air, and the black rock as tall as a person suddenly broke into pieces.
The long knife in the man's hand was loosened. He couldn't stand the inertia and took several steps back before he stabilized himself.
"No. 2, the examiner failed, No. 3 continues!" The examiner said calmly with an unwilling expression on the person's face.
It was indeed a pity for him that he was only one breath away from splitting the black rock in half. Unfortunately, he was only one breath away from success and ultimately failed.
Xiao Chen looked at examiner No. 2 who left in frustration, and the expression on his face became serious. Why is this assessment so strict? That person's strength is already at the level of a mid-level high-grade martial artist.
If they were unable to use martial arts, most of the people present would probably face the same outcome and be eliminated at this first level.
Xiao Chen looked at the high platform. There was an old man sitting in the middle. He was very old and full of energy and blood. He could feel the strong and long breath of life from a long distance away.
This person is Jiang Chi, the Great Elder of the Elder Council of the Tiandao Pavilion. He is the person with the highest status in the entire Tiandao Pavilion. He was the one who shot the dart just now. Xiao Chen's eyes were full of doubts as to what the old man was thinking.
The first level is so difficult, do you want to eliminate all of us
